Description: There are plenty of entirely legitimate reasons to recommend not buying cheap record players from brands like Crosley and Victrola. But the common claim that they "destroy" records or "chew up the grooves" in normal use is an exaggerated myth that is scaring away newcomers and giving a false impression of the format's fragility.
